Shift Dress

A shift dress is traditionally a simple, above-the-knee dress either cut with a slight a-line or straight. There is normally little or no waist definition and the neckline is usually a high scoop neck or boatneck. A shift dress is typically sleeveless, although short-sleeve and long-sleeve versions are also popular.
